About
My name is Harley Shuford
I am an undergraduate student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, majoring in Management & Society with a minor in Entrepreneurship. I have three older sisters, all of whom attended UNC, as well as both my mom and dad. Chapel Hill was always my dream school, so I am beyond thankful to call myself a Tar Heel.
Outside of academics, I love spending time outdoors. My three favorite things to do are surfing, skiing, and offshore fishing. I have spent every summer of my life in Wilmington, NC, which sparked my passion for being on the water. I also have a deep love for music, which follows me on all of my journeys. My ultimate goal is to start a company of my own. What that is? I don't quite know yet. Until I get the idea, I want to immerse myself in the world of startups or real estate.
